I could not give less of a shit about this movie

You can add that to your list of you want, or not, I don’t care what you do, that’s just how I feel about it

it’s perfectly fine to not look forward to a movie, just like it’s fine to not like/dislike a movie regardless of greater general opinion. But Avatar seems to get under people’s skin around here for some odd reason

Not saying that’s the case for you, even I’m ambivalent towards the movie. But I can’t imagine getting upset over the existence of a movie that I still have the choice of seeing or not seeing. Some people in this thread act like James Cameron broke into their house and painted everything blue

I’m not upset, I just don’t give a shit about it

I was interested in the first one and watched it, liked some aspects of it but overall found it to be not very good. Only cared enough about the second one to try to watch it at home when it hit streaming platforms, but I only made it about half way through it before I got so bored I stopped watching. I don’t care at all about what the third one gets up to, so I doubt I’ll ever even try to watch it. In my experience, I’ve run into far more people that get upset that I don’t care about the Avatar movies than I have people who get upset about the movies themselves.

people who get upset at others for not sharing the same opinions are annoying as hell. Just makes me think of the Sack Lunch/English Patient scenario in Seinfeld
